Australian Vogue has an iconic status in Australia, and to match, there's now a cover archive to scour through. It's been done before on UK Vogue, and as we catch up, many of those fabulous covers from 2004 to 2006 can be shared with all.
The cover says so much. It speaks to potential readers from newsstands and whether it's screaming with cover lines or taking a more quiet approach, ranging the gamut from model to celebrity and seeing who or what sells more. Selecting the particular range of colours and tones to match the cover shoot sets the tone for the particular issue and it's always so interesting to see what a publisher thinks will work. There's pressure in the industry to always reinvent the covers and keep them fresh and relevant. The cover is like your clothes, it's your first impression of a particular publication and appeals to your tastes at an instant before you've even realised.
Magazine gloss.
